Warning

If these safety instructions are not observed,

it may result in personal injury.

Warning

During electrical installation, make sure that the

power supply cannot be accidentally switched

on.

Warning

These instructions must be observed for

explosion-proof pumps. We recommend that you

also follow these instructions for standard

pumps.

Caution

If these safety instructions are not observed, it

may result in malfunction or damage to the

equipment.

Note

Notes or instructions that make the job easier

and ensure safe operation.

Warning

Make sure that the mains switch can be locked in

the 0/Off position. Type and requirements must

comply with EN 60204-1, 5.3.2.

Warning

Observe local regulations setting limits for

manual lifting or handling.

Warning

For safety reasons, all work in pump pits must be

supervised by a person outside the pit.

Warning

Pits for submersible wastewater pumps contain

wastewater potentially with toxic and/or

disease-causing substances.

Therefore, while working on the pump, wear

appropriate personal protective equipment and

clothing. In addition, carry out work on or near

the pump under strict observance of the hygiene

regulations in force.
